I think most people are simply in denial of what kind of game this is, or incapable of making proper comparisons across game categories. For a pure pay-2-win game like PWI, it falls right around the middle of the pack in terms of cost. Games like LoL/Overwatch are not the same, because spending $10000 there doesn't…

The game is not really that expensive if you plan to play seriously and devote time to it, $2000 should get you started in endgame pk, and it only takes like $4000-5000 more dollars to be top tier and be "endgame" finished. Maybe another few k's to round out your char if you're a perfectionist. About as expensive as any…

Nah price is 100% fine u can get gold for only like 4m or something in AH no need to change anything. Not PWI's fault u guys want to bypass AH lol.

Why do you care about how other people spent their money? Almost all of the endgame players cash in one way or another now or no-life 24/7. Catshopping does not pay like it once does, and gold-flipping takes forever. This game has a small but very stable whale population and still makes the company a lot of $$. You're the…

The first two suggestions are literally all that's needed to fix the economy. It will take awhile, but gold will eventually stabilize and then decrease. We don't need massive band-aid fixes that try to force changes overnight. Also I can't believe nebula orbs are still 20 gold/50...

I think a lot of people are feeling it's time to move on, I haven't really logged in since setting up my virtual reality game room. IDK yet if that will get old (though funny thing is that the entire room is probably cheaper than playing PWI at endgame pvp levels for most people). Playing a game like PWI nowadays feels so…

Yep that is what I'm getting as well, even less if I minimize the windows to like 200x200. Like I've even posted screenshot proof and people still somehow QQ...or claim I'm photoshopping images because I have some agenda in lying about ram usage...the people on this board...LOL. Again post PC specs/screenies of your client…

You're pretty much outsmarting yourself atm...post your friend's system specs and a screen of a client and we might be able to get an idea of what's going on with his computer.

Resolution has a massive effect on ram/cpu usage. Make sure the client is in windowed mode, and login at 640x480. You can change the resolution even smaller in-game when the client is open. Make sure the windows stay closed and the RAM usage will eventually go down. Why would I use a page file when I have 8 GB of memory…

https://i.imgur.com/SklHVQw.jpg That shows current ram usage for some of the clients, they seem to vary anywhere from 50 to 400. The one at the top is obviously an open window at >1080p resolution so its consuming the 600-800 that your friend is getting, but there's no reason to keep the window open or have it at such high…

I actually double-checked and none of the clients are using more than 400 MB/ram. Currently have 6 clients open and they're using ~1.8 GB total. I have 16GB memory so there's still easily space for 18+ more if I was willing to have that many windows open. My main client that runs at a larger window size + higher graphics…

You just have to be online to get the points - one client set at lowest resolution + lowest graphics settings takes up only like 50-100 MB of ram...considering you can get $10 worth of gold per day per client just for logging in, it's actually almost 10x more economical to upgrade your RAM so you can run more clients than…

The people QQ'ing here are the ones without 50+ lvl 90 alts. I only have enough 90+ chars to get 7 JoSD from this promo...so I'm hurting too. Some lucky few will instantly get rich off this. They should have restricted it to a certain Arcane sky level or required a homestead.

Any item created for trade-in by coins would have to be a new item created by PWI. Putting in old, already released stuff like DoD would simply be the same as replacing foil drops with higher DoD drops, because that's pretty much what the foil coins would be going into. PWI would never do that in a million years because…

It doesn't matter if it's gold. If they put DoD/DoT shards as buyable they would immediately be botted and exploited. It has to be content that is not easily bottable. Also the old instances like UP/DH/JFSP have been modified multiple times in past patches, sometimes in significant ways. JFSP's loot system was actually…

Giving away free gold for coins isn't a viable solution - I wish people would stop suggesting that. You are not taking into consideration that PWI is a buisness that needs to stay financially viable. You can't just make EVERYTHING in the cash shop freely farmable when PWI depends on that income. The best solution would be…

Like I've been saying for the past half-year or so since the exact day they added foils to keys...they are extremely insidious and on another level from anything PWI has done. But of course no one agreed with me or made threads until it was too late, because everyone's an expert on the economy :smile: . I think it will…

There's a ton we could spend on. PWI just isn't allowing it by purposely raising the gold price above cap, because they know it forces people to charge real money for gold regardless of their in-game wealth.

Bruh that was like a year ago. Yeah, I flipped something like 70-80 stones but it was only like 200m in profit. You're operating on outdated information...I haven't sold socket stones in over half a year probably. They're pretty worthless now. The period when gold was between 1m to 3999900 was one of the most profitable…

Sorry but your wrong there. Accessory stones are not worth 6 million even with current gold prices. If you think I'm wrong, show some proof. Is there someone on your server buying up all the keys in WC and trying to re-sell them at a 10m gold value? Because there's no one stopping them from doing that. In fact, you can do…

The best policies don't have to be the most popular ones. I'm sure PWI has taken a look at the results and their bottom line and made a conclusion that the long-term health of the game is not worth giving up the money in the short term.

The gold price has no impact on f2p players farming coins. And if you depend on $100/month for income, then gold price has no impact on you because if gold sells for more then you get more with your money. The promos become even better for you actually. Only real issue PWI needs to deal with are keys but they simply ignore…

Do you actually realize that it's a net benefit for f2p players if they can get a free 12* dragon orb from spend promos, even with gold at 7.5m? I find it hilarious that people are so scared of gold prices that PWI can run a promo like "1 JOSD if you spend 100 gold" and people will riot like it's a bad thing. WTF are you…

PWI will be just fine. People will still buy keys. 3000+ keys opened already. No problem.

Confirmed - Astral Orb sale pricing has been doubled and is back in at 20 gold/50, raised from 10 gold/50. Seems this will be the standard pricing now.

What exactly was your point? That people will overpay for stuff because they can? According to your logic, you should go and sell apples for $10 each because there's no cap on apple prices :smile:

So if they raised the cap to 100m, you would buy gold at 100m/per? LOL.

Dude, are you kidding? That's the absolute best way to do absolutely jack **** with your money. While you're sitting on your 4000 gold "hoping" for it to hit 15m, I'm cashing in multiple DoD/war avatars by spending it and moving the market. You literally can't control the supply when it's just so laughably easy for people…

Lol...the only thing real merchants did was move product from rich whales into the hands of the regular people, or make items more accessible to people with different types of needs. If you think merchanting in this game is buying a DoD for 110m and selling it for 120m, or opening a pack and selling its contents in your…

GoF is an average 20% damage boost. Purge procs are an average 120% damage boost. They don't really compare, but I'd gladly take that trade. Anyway, it seems like PWI got tired of all the people charging gold and spending money on the game, so they decided to put a stop to it. At least we know what's been going on. I have…
